The problem with Rossi’s system is that it is too good to be true.

Like electric power was too good to be true? Like nuclear energy, television, radio, telephone, telegraph, the internal combustion engine, steam-engine driven looms, steam engines, water-wheel driven grist mills, water wheels, etc, etc, etc, back to the beginning of technology, were all too good to be true?

Along the way, and throughout the development of all those things you listed, a much better understanding of how everything works, was gained. For that very reason, that is why I think the skeptics are carrying a much heavier hand than the "I Want To Believe" faction.

The Wright brothers were denied publication in Scientific American because heavier than air flight was too good to be true.
